Doctor Who Season 1

Rose Part 6

We found an entrance to underneath the London Eye and the Doctor opened it and started climbing down into it with me following behind. From there we saw a door and walked through. We were now standing on a platfrom looking over onto something that looked a lot like liquid fire inside a massive circle. 

"The nesting consciousness," the Doctor said. "That's it inside that. A living plastic creature."

"Well come on. Tip in your anti plastic and let's go."

"We're not here to kill it," the Doctor said. "We have to give it a chance." He walked down onto a lower platform. "I seek audience with the nesting consciousness under peaceful contract," he said loudly. "According to convention 15 of the shadow proclamation."

A loud gurgling noise came from the consciousness. "Thank you," the Doctor said. "But might I come closer?" There was another girgling. 

Then I saw Mickey. "Oh my gosh," I said, running down to him. "Mickey, it's me. It's okay it's alright."

"Shhhh, that liquid down there, it can talk, Rose," Mickey said. 

"Doctor they kept him alive," I said as the Doctor came down to where we were. 

"Yeah that was always a possibility," the Doctor replied. "Keep him alive to maintain the copy."

"You knew that and you never said," I said angrily. 

"Can we keep the domstics outside thankyou?" the Doctor said as he walked over to the liquid. "Am I adressing the consciousness?" he asked.

The liquid gurgled. 

"Thank you. As I observed, you infultrated this planet by means of war-shoned activity. So might I suggest with the greatest respect that you shont off?"

The liquid gurlged again and started making shapes. 

"Oh don't give me that. It's an invasion, plain and simple. Don't talk about constitutional rights."

The liquid gurgled and screeched and rose up higher. 

"I am talking!" the Doctor said loudly. "This planet is just starting. These stupid, little people have only just learnt how to walk and they are capable of so much more. I am asking you on their behalf. Please, just go."

I saw two manekins walk up behind the Doctor. "Doctor!" I shouted as they grabbed him. 

One of them pulled out the anti plastic from his jacket. "That was just insurance, I wasn't going to use it!"

The liquid screeched again.

"I am not attacking you! I'm here to help. I am not your enemy, I swear."

The liquid gurgled. 

"What do you mean?" the Doctor asked as a door opened, revealng the TARDIS. "What? Oh no. Honestly no. It's my ship."

The liquid screeched. 

"That's not true, I should know, I was there! I fought in the war, it wasn't my fault! I couldn't save your world, I couldn't save any of them!" 

"What's it doing?" I shouted. 

"It's the TARDIS," the Doctor told me. "The nesting consciousness has identified it as superior technology. It's terrified. It's going to the final base, its dying innovation. Just get out, Rose! Just go!" 

My phone rang and I answered it. "Mum?! "

"Oh, hi Rose," she said. "I was just going to phone. You can get compensation, I said so. I've got this document thing from the police."

"Where are you mum?" I asked. 

"I'm in town."

"Go home, just go home right now."

"Rose, you're breaking up. Just listen, I'm going to do a little bit of late night shopping, I'll be home later."

"Mum!" I shouted but she had already hung up. 

A strike of lightning came up from liquid. "It's the activation signal," the Doctor said. "It's transmitting!" 

"It's the end of the world," I murmured.
